Okay, idea:

Peanuts RTD ~ The RNG is Merciless, Charlie Brown

Roll to be Pod People
Five body-snatching alien symbiotes have crash-landed in a suburban neighborhood, infected five normal people, and taken their place in society. They are, in reality, experimental infiltration drones created by competing military contractors on an alien planet, and their mission is to silently integrate themselves into human society while attempting to destroy each other. The last surviving drone who has kept its cover is the winner.

Each player plays as one of the symbiotes, trying to keep their cover and discreetly murder the other players. A player is kicked out and replaced by someone from the waitlist when they are either incarcerated, discovered or killed.

Spoiler: Crafting (click to show/hide)

As long as it makes sense in the setting, you cna make anything, of course that is if you have the supplies to make it. You could make a rocket launcher out of scrap metal, an air tank, a sring, and various other odds an ends. Or you could make a time bomb out of a watch, and plasma canister. So think up some interesting ways to kill those Necromorphs, and the other challengers.

Spoiler: Kill Points (click to show/hide)

For each kill you get throughout your time on the station you score, Kill Points, or KP which is the currency of this game. With it you can buy ammo, weapons, supplies, building mats., etc. Of course the stronger an enemy is the more points you'll get, and for killing other Challengers, or the Abandoned (Old challengers who hid away in the station) you get KP equal to the value of the persons gear.

So what do you guys think?

Eh, RTD Deathmatch type games usually don't last too long. And seriously, you don't really need weapon stats, just becomes more annoying for you to roll for every turn.

I'll remove the AS of guns, and either roll for how many shots, or let the player decide. So thanks also it has story elements as well which the players will find if the look around a bit. All of it points to a secret about the station that may help the players escape to freedom.

Yeah, I suggest you just add a set amount of bullets that are fired per round, see if the shots hit, then roll for damage.

[adwarf]

Well its up, and I will take your advice . Of course the damage displayed is the middle ground for damage the weapon can do.

[Dave1004]

The Roller's Block is on the second page!? THIS. WILL. NOT. DO.

We need more RTD's. I recommend that we begin "Purging" everybody who doesn't log on daily.

All in favor, say Scrumilovelolispliscra

[micelus]

Nay. I dare say that thou who hath suggested this foul idea be forced to pay the court a fine of....10000000 Septims or serve your sentence.

Sorry. Just been reading over past memes lately.

Roll to Be a Christmas Tree Ornament! The game where players dodge tinsel, lights, and various ornaments while ascending to the top of the Christmas Tree to steal the Star and escape, thereby winning Christmas! Starting classes include snowflake, nutcracker, M&M and red ball!

[fergus]

That sounds awesome.

[kisame12794]

Hmmmmm.
Roll to be The Guy.

[Darvi]

I think we already brought up that idea once.

[IronyOwl]

More than once, I think. It never really went anywhere.

[Dermonster]

I still think a Zelda RTD would be pretty cool.
